Twtrland Launches Social Data Toolset for BusinessesSocial analytics platform Twtrland has been providing fancy stats about individuals for over a year, and today the Israeli startup behind it is launching a business-focused product called, unsurprisingly, Twtrland for Business. The new service provides the ability to track accounts on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram, monitoring KPIs like brand impressions and the number of new followers against rivals’ performance. It can break down your social audience by age, location, interests and attributes such as whether they’re a celebrity, a power user, casual user or social media novice. Twtrland for Business also suggests the best time of day to tweet about particular topics or particular audiences, and allows you to identify key influencers in your audience based on filters such as their location or skill set. If this all sounds kind of familiar, it’s because there are plenty of other products on the market that offer similar services, not least The Next Web’s own Twitter Counter.

Why the Largest Social Network in 2015 Won't be Facebook, and Will Be From AsiaWe’re all familiar with the major social networks in the U.S. (FB, Twitter, etc.) as well as which ones are up and coming ( Vine, Snapchat, Kik, WhatsApp). But what are not talked about a lot, are the social networks out in Asia that are growing insanely fast — like WeChat, KakaoTalk, and LINE. Although culturally targeted towards a different audience, these Asian networks will one day cross the pond and come to the U.S. and start competing out here. And although they started as pure messaging apps, they’ve increasingly added features to become full social networks.

France’s next revolution: The vote that could wreck the European UnionIT HAS been many years since France last had a revolution, or even a serious attempt at reform. Stagnation, both political and economic, has been the hallmark of a country where little has changed for decades, even as power has rotated between the established parties of left and right.
